The continuity of Fermín López at Barça is in serious doubt. The youth player has lost momentum since Hansi Flick took over as coach, and no one rules out his possible departure in the coming weeks. On the table are two proposals from major European teams, who are willing to negotiate his arrival personally with Laporta.
A few months ago, Fermín López renewed his contract with Barça until June 2029, including a 500 million euro release clause. This means that, for now, there's complete calm in the Barça offices, although no scenario is ruled out. He's stopped being important in top-level matches and seems to have become the last in line for Hansi Flick.
Fermín López, 2 Offers to Leave Barça NOW
In recent days, it seems Fermín has received calls from two major European teams. One of them is PSG, where Luis Enrique would be delighted to have him. He's not fully convinced by his team and has thought of the youth player, intending to persuade him to join his project.
However, he's not the only one interested in immediately acquiring Fermín López: Switching countries and moving to England, Manchester United also wants him. He's a player who fits into Amorim's scheme and would be thrilled to have him. Additionally, they have an advantage: Barcelona's interest in Marcus Rashford.
Despite his 500 million euro release clause, Barça would be willing to negotiate his possible departure if Fermín López himself requests it. If this happens, a scenario not currently considered, he would be valued at around 60 million euros. Despite having lost importance, he's a player with a lot of market value who can bring in a lot of money.
Laporta Doesn't Want to Sell Fermín López
Although he's caused great interest, Madrid-Barcelona has learned that Barcelona has no intention of letting him go. Laporta has great confidence in Fermín López's abilities, as demonstrated by his recent renewal. He's a highly regarded player and, although he could bring a lot of money to the bank, the plan is for him to stay.
The truth is that the youth player isn't on the list of possible departures in this January market. Instead, there are other teammates who could leave the project if the proposal is fair.
